Re: 9.584640 (framing issue)
Toshio,
I believe that the framing solution is a second-order task and that the first
order task is to determine if there is any possibility of supporting an
Ethernet stream, consisting of variable sized packets at ANY MAC/PLS data rate
which would eliminate any flow control requirements between Ethernet and SONET
OC-192.
Is 9.584640 Gbps this data rate? If not, is there any data rate that meets the
above requirement? If not, the HSSG speed objective should be 10.0 Gbps.
Best Regards,
Rich
